I have a very strong will to survive, but there are boundaries that I won't go past. Cannabalism IS one of those few barriers.
I believe what it boils down to is everyone has their own "rules," for a lack of better wording, for how far they will go to survive. What caused me to look for this thread was someone mentioning TEOTWAWKI. If that alone were to happen, I believe I could survive because I have three reasons to survive: My mom and my sisters. If I were in a situation as Benjamin described, and my reasons to survive were among the dead, G-d may as well take me out.
